Beyond Meat’s Beyond Burger life cycle assessment (2018)

This is bizarre virtue signalling that you should rein in.

The entire world eats meat, and you know that.

You almost certainly have some opinions on the moral correctness of animal slaughter for food.

So it's not a leap of logic to realize that probably there's a significant cross-over between people who have this view but still like the taste.

So I have no idea why you feel like this is a "confusing" product to exist.

I don't get what you're trying to say. Of course people like the taste, but why pretend to eat meat? We all know it's not the same. I'd rather have a real version of something I like than a fake version of something I miss.

All other things being equal, so would everyone here.

But all other things aren't equal. One side requires raising and killing animals, and the other side doesn't.

So we're weighing "real thing that kills animals" and "fake thing that's really close, but doesn't kill animals".
